i got a 5.4 lightning swapped in front with tuning for that pcm so im not real keen on swapping trans/computers for the reason of tuning. the electrical im not scared of too horribly bad. but yes, the headache factor would be a turn off for the e4od.

not sure if a monsterbox is the route to go. this motor in front of it has some major torque, i dont know when the last time i seen a truck loaded down still light tires up at 25mph rolls (at least 5k# trailer plus some additional payload, shoulda weighed it since it bend my drophitch). although it may be harder for those guys to squirm and try to find reasons to blame me for failure of their unit?

i could try to find a local (general NW area/ WA state mostly) guy and see if the guy hmm and ha's about the idea. or if i get someone thats gonna brag it up until it fails then blame me. my basic fear here is the builder getting his money then just blowing me off if it fails. no 30 day down my driveway ****.
